1. How can you debunk it?

It's impossible. The person who claims he DID say it, should produce the documentation.

2. He did say it and much along the lines of how you feel

He did not mean Republican voters, he meant this adminstration and their enablers. Dean has a lot of Republican supporters (or did during the primaries). I am not sure there is a transcript of his speech where he said this, but I believe the context of his comment was while he dislikes what the GOP govt is doing to our country, we need to learn from how oragnized they are.

5. Yes Dean said it, but the full quote (from the video of the speech) is

I want to do what the Republicans do...I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for, but I admire their discipline and their organization.

Dean was referring to the Republican Party operatives, like Rove, and the Repuke Leadership, not ordinary Republican voters or Republicans of Conscience, like Lowell Weicker, who had endorsed Dean, and Sen. Jeffords, who left the Repuke Party in 2001.

Goddammit, right-wing blathering morons scream much worse invective at Democrats and/or liberals EVERY DAMN DAY from their pulpits on FAUX or talk radio.

Dean has one little comment taken out of context and it's horrid, oh, just terrible!

Republicans are such fucking hypocrites.

3. He is on record as saying he DOES NOT

hate Republicans. He said he worked with many fine Repukes while he was Governor. I don't believe he said that.
